The life of a fan I suppose. No point in trying to knock a brick wall down with a hammer when it clearly isn't going to do much damage in the first place.
Unless you prefer the book of Homer:
"Aim low. Aim so low, that even if you succeed, you will be disappointed."
"You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is: never try."
There's every point in the world to try and do something. At least if you failed, you failed knowing that you tried to make a difference.
